Refund amounts can vary based on the type and quantity of devices they purchased, as well as the number of consumers in those other states who make claims. Pay-outs are expected to be at least $10, according to the Oregon Attorney General’s Office.

“I encourage Oregonians to submit claims for amounts they may have overpaid because of this alleged price-fixing scheme,” said Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum.

Universities, colleges and state and local governments that bought DRAM products during the same time period will receive separate notice about their refunds.
